Even easier, use the zpool create command to create a pool on c8t1d0, using the whole disk. Try this:
# zpool create MyData c8t1d0 cs On 07/01/10 16:01, Peter Taps wrote:
Folks, I am learning more about zfs storage. It appears, zfs pool can be created on a raw disk. There is no need to create any partitions, etc. on the disk. Does this mean there is no need to run "format" on a raw disk? I have added a new disk to my system. It shows up as /dev/rdsk/c8t1d0s0. Do I need to format it before I convert it to zfs storage? Or, can I simply use it as: # zfs create MyData /dev/rdsk/c8t1d0s0 Thank you in advance for your help. Regards, Peter
